* * * * *

That night, Jill and I hobbled into the new restaurant on Ford Avenue, Delo’s. Thanks to our afternoon activities, which included a three hour bike excursion, our legs were as limp as overcooked pasta. As we entered, we found out Delo’s was a nice restaurant, the kind of place people like Shane would dine at. Not an underpaid secretary on a counting-every-penny tight budget.

“I’m thinking we should go somewhere else,” I whispered as the hostess, dressed in a black skirt and jacket and white shirt, eyeballed us.

“No, we’re staying.”

“But—“

“My treat.”

“But—“

“No arguments,” Jill snapped.

“But—“

“Shhh!” She shushed me, grinning. “How many times have you bought me dinner?”

“A few,” I answered. That was a lie. We both knew it. But I didn’t like to rub things in people’s faces, especially Jill’s. She was my best friend, and I was hers. She’d hit a rough patch a while back when she was in law school. I was glad to be able to help her through it. If the tables had been turned (hopefully that wouldn’t be happening now) I knew she would’ve done the same for me.

“It’s my turn to pay you back,” Jill whispered as she gave me a don’t-argue-with-me squint.

The hostess stepped up, and, walking a little shakily, we followed her. My gaze meandered through the restaurant’s chic interior. The tables were widely spaced apart, covered with crisp white tablecloths. The chairs, also white, had very high backs that provided a small measure of privacy for diners. But as we moved through the space to our table, I could still see many men, all decked in full business dress, including ties, and women in dresses.

The hostess stopped at a table near the back of the open space. “Is this okay?” she asked.

“It’s fine,” Jill said as she grabbed the back of one of the chairs. “Thank you.”

“Your server will be with you shortly.” The hostess scurried back to her station while Jill and I took our seats.

I scanned the area. “No menus.”

“The server will probably bring them. Or he might have to recite the menu. I had lunch at a place this week that had no printed menu. The wait staff had to recite it for every customer.”

I leaned toward her and whispered, “No menu means no prices.”

“Don’t worry about it.” Looking a little too casual, considering where we were, Jill sipped from her stemmed water glass.

I angled even closer. “Do you know something I don’t? Did you win the lottery?”

“Um, well.” Jill’s lips twisted. “I did get a bit of a raise.”

“You did?”

“Yeah. Actually, I got a big raise. And a promotion.” Grinning like a total goon, my bestie held up her glass. “You’re now looking at the new partner at Schwartz and Eddings, soon to be Schwartz, Eddings and Staton.”

“Congratulations!” I lifted my glass, and we clinked them. “To my bestie and her new position.”

“And to new opportunities for you,” Jill offered.

“Does that mean you have a lead on a new job for me?”

“No. I asked.” Jill’s smile faded.
